Description:

Sometimes, things are just too good to be true. Here’s a case in point.

A Japanese model called imma has attracted a following on Instagram for her amazing looks and style. But imma is not a regular model or idol. She’s not even human.

Like the schoolgirl Saya, the AKB48 member Aimi Eguchi, and the entirely AI-generated idol supergroup, imma is entirely digital. The CG virtual idol is the creation of ModelingCafe, a company that has produced digitally crafted characters and monsters for a range of media (check out its impressive portfolio). Well, imma (whose name is apparently a pun on “ima,” which means “now” in Japanese) is certainly no monster. If you spotted her on the streets of Shinjuku or Ebisu, you’d definitely stop to take another look — not least because of her pink hair (which can look pretty sexy on AV idols, too).

Even from people who know in advance that imma isn’t real-life lady, there has been praise for her realistic skin and hair.

The Instagram account is also quite cleverly done, featuring selfies and shots where imma poses against real-life backgrounds in Tokyo neighborhoods… Just like an actual model.
